26、   Have you ever got your lunch, but not known where to sit? You don't want to sit alone. But you are not sure who would be friendly and let you sit with them.

To solve the problem, Natalie Hampton, 16, made an app called Sit With Us. It makes finding friends in the school canteen(食堂) very easy. Natalie is from Sherman Oaks, California, US.

The free app went online on Sep.9. Students can sign up as “ambassadors”(大使) for a club. Then they can post “open lunch” events to invite others to join in.

Natalie got the idea to create the app after she ate alone her whole seventh grade year. The experience made her feel sad and she was even bullied(欺负). She changed schools because of that.

People may want to know why you don't just ask to sit down. Natalie said the app stops kids from being rejected in front of others. “This way it's very private. It's through the phone. No one else has to know. And you know that you're not going to the table.” she told NPR.

So far, the app works well. “I had my first club meeting, and everyone was very excited. People are already posting open lunches at my schools. So I'm very excited.” Natalie told NPR.

27、We each have a memory. That’s why we can still remember things after a long time.

Many of the great men of the world have got surprising memories.

28、   Being humble (谦以待人)
